Corollary 2: Subsystem Code Parameters

For the horizontal subsystem balanced product code (Def_29) over an s-regular graph X with free ℤ_ℓ-action, the code parameters [[N, K, D_X, D_Z]] satisfy:

• N = 3|X₁|
• K = dim H₁(C(X/ℤ_ℓ, L)) ≥ (2k_L/s - 1)|X₁|/ℓ
• D_Z ≥ |X₁| · min(α_ho/2, α_ho·β_ho/4)
• D_X ≥ min(α_co·|X₁|, α_co·β_co·|X₁|/2, ℓ·α_co/(4s), ℓ·α_co·β_co/(4s))

Step 1: Number of Physical Qubits N = 3|X₁|

The physical qubits correspond to Tot₁ = (C₁(X,L) ⊗_H C₀(C_ℓ)) ⊕ (C₀(X,L) ⊗_H C₁(C_ℓ)). Since H = ℤ_ℓ acts freely, the balanced product dimensions are:

• dim(C₁(X,L) ⊗_H C₀(C_ℓ)) = |X₁|
• dim(C₀(X,L) ⊗_H C₁(C_ℓ)) = s|X₀| = 2|X₁| (by s-regularity)

So N = |X₁| + 2|X₁| = 3|X₁|.

The hypothesis hdim_components encapsulates the balanced product dimension formula dim(Tot₁) = |X₁| + s|X₀|, which follows from the coinvariant dimension formula dim(V ⊗_H W) = dim(V)·dim(W)/|H| for free actions. The proof then reduces to regularity: |X₁| + s|X₀| = |X₁| + 2|X₁| = 3|X₁|.

The number of physical qubits is 3|X₁|. Given the balanced product dimensional decomposition and s-regularity, the proof is arithmetic.

Step 2: Logical Qubit Bound K ≥ (2k_L/s - 1)|X₁|/ℓ

By Thm_12: K = dim H₁ʰ = dim H₁(C(X/ℤ_ℓ, L)). By Thm_7 (Sipser–Spielman): dim H₁(C(X/ℤ_ℓ, L)) ≥ (2k_L/s - 1)|X₁/ℤ_ℓ|. Since |X₁/ℤ_ℓ| = |X₁|/ℓ (free action), K ≥ (2k_L/s - 1)|X₁|/ℓ.

Logical qubit count. The horizontal homology dimension equals the quotient Tanner code homology dimension. This is Thm_12.

Logical qubit lower bound. By Thm_12 (encoding rate) and Thm_7 (Sipser–Spielman), K = dim H₁(C(X/ℤ_ℓ, L)) ≥ (2k_L/s - 1) · |X₁|/ℓ.

Here kL is the dimension of the local code kernel, numQuotientEdges is |(X/H)₁| (the number of edges of the quotient graph), and we assume |(X/H)₁| = |X₁|/ℓ (which holds since H acts freely on edges).

Step 3: D_Z bound

By Thm_13 (homologicalDistanceBound_horizontal), any nontrivial homology class [x] with nontrivial horizontal projection satisfies |x| ≥ |X₁| · min(α_ho/2, α_ho·β_ho/4).

theorem SubsystemCodeParameters.subsystemCodeParameters_DZ {H : Type} [Group H] [Fintype H] [DecidableEq H] (X : GraphWithGroupAction H) {s : ℕ} (Λ : X.CellLabeling s) (ℓ : ℕ) [NeZero ℓ] [MulAction H (Fin ℓ)] (hΛ : GraphWithGroupAction.IsInvariantLabeling Λ) (hcompat : BalancedProductTannerCycleCode.CycleCompatibleAction ℓ) (hodd : Odd (Fintype.card H)) (hℓ_ge : ℓ ≥ 3) (hℓ_odd : ℓ % 2 = 1) (α_ho β_ho : ℝ) (hexp : HomologicalDistanceBound.IsExpandingLinMap (BalancedProductTannerCycleCode.tannerDifferential X Λ) α_ho β_ho) (x : HorizontalVerticalHomologySplitting.H1 X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat) (hx : x ≠ 0) (hproj : (HorizontalVerticalHomologySplitting.projH X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat hodd) x ≠ 0) : ↑(HomologicalDistanceBound.cycleRepWeight X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat hodd x) ≥ ↑(Fintype.card (X.graph.cells 1)) * min (α_ho / 2) (α_ho * β_ho / 4)

Z-distance bound. Every nontrivial homology class with nontrivial horizontal projection has weight at least |X₁| · min(α_ho/2, α_ho·β_ho/4). This directly restates Thm_13, Case 1.

Step 4: D_X bound

The X-distance combines two cases from Thm_14:

• Case 1 (vertical): |x| ≥ |X₀|s · min(α_co/2, α_co·β_co/4) Substituting |X₀|s = 2|X₁|: |x| ≥ min(α_co·|X₁|, α_co·β_co·|X₁|/2).
• Case 2 (horizontal): |x| ≥ ℓ · min(α_co/(4s), α_co·β_co/(4s)).

X-distance bound, Case 1 (vertical projection nonzero). Any nontrivial cohomology class with nontrivial vertical projection satisfies |x| ≥ |X₀|·s · min(α_co/2, α_co·β_co/4). By s-regularity |X₀|·s = 2|X₁|, this gives |x| ≥ min(α_co·|X₁|, α_co·β_co·|X₁|/2).

theorem SubsystemCodeParameters.subsystemCodeParameters_DX_horizontal {H : Type} [Group H] [Fintype H] [DecidableEq H] (X : GraphWithGroupAction H) {s : ℕ} (Λ : X.CellLabeling s) (ℓ : ℕ) [NeZero ℓ] [MulAction H (Fin ℓ)] (hΛ : GraphWithGroupAction.IsInvariantLabeling Λ) (hcompat : BalancedProductTannerCycleCode.CycleCompatibleAction ℓ) (hodd : Odd (Fintype.card H)) (hℓ_ge : ℓ ≥ 3) (hℓ_odd : ℓ % 2 = 1) (hs : s ≥ 1) (α_co β_co : ℝ) (hexp : CohomologicalDistanceBound.IsExpandingCoboundary (CohomologicalDistanceBound.coboundaryMap X Λ) α_co β_co) (x : HorizontalVerticalHomologySplitting.H1 X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat) (hx : x ≠ 0) (hproj : (HorizontalVerticalHomologySplitting.coprojV X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat hodd) x = 0) : ↑(HomologicalDistanceBound.cycleRepWeight X Λ ℓ hΛ hcompat hodd x) ≥ ↑ℓ * min (α_co / (4 * ↑s)) (α_co * β_co / (4 * ↑s))

X-distance bound, Case 2 (purely horizontal). Any nontrivial cohomology class with zero vertical projection satisfies |x| ≥ ℓ · min(α_co/(4s), α_co·β_co/(4s)).

Combined D_X bound

The overall X-distance is the minimum over both cases. For any nontrivial cohomology class with nontrivial logical projection, we have |x| ≥ min(|X₀|s · min(α_co/2, α_co·β_co/4), ℓ · min(α_co/(4s), α_co·β_co/(4s))).

Combined X-distance bound. For any nontrivial homology class x with nontrivial horizontal projection (logical part), the weight is bounded below by the minimum of the vertical and horizontal cohomological bounds. Using |X₀|s = 2|X₁|, this gives: D_X ≥ min(α_co·|X₁|, α_co·β_co·|X₁|/2, ℓ·α_co/(4s), ℓ·α_co·β_co/(4s)).

Combined distance bound for nontrivial homology classes. Given a nontrivial homology class in the balanced product code, the combined D_X bound holds. This follows directly from subsystemCodeParameters_DX_combined.

This replaces the satisfiability axiom: the actual distance bound for any given nontrivial x follows from the theorems above. The existence of nontrivial homology classes for specific graph families (Cayley expanders) is a constructive combinatorial result from [PK22, Section 5].
